Chapter 457: The White Dragon's Ambush
After Zhao Xu and the "legendary mage" who suddenly visited Ying Ergou separated, he continued to act as a coachman, driving a carriage to carry Antinoa and Vivian on the snow.
Although they only need a random seven-ring "advanced teleportation technique", they can easily reach Olu, the capital of the Northern Alliance.
In particular, Antinoya herself can cast advanced teleportation techniques at will, and Vivien, as a succubus, has a similar spell ability and can cast advanced teleportation techniques.
Even Zhao Xu has a "Passage Staff", which can perform advanced teleportation techniques.
On the contrary, they just don't want it, they have to make do with it.
At this moment, the three of them formed a kind of black humor, each of them was able to teleport, but they stayed in a small carriage, constantly running in the direction of the capital on the snow.
However, in this process, after Zhao Xu performed the one-ring method of "enduring the environment" on himself, the temperature around him was automatically constant, which also made the cold wind that penetrated into the collar not so biting.
In this wild trip from Winter City to Oulu, it seems that the snow has suppressed the desire of countless travelers.
By the way, the monsters are all thinking about the winter, and their range of activities has also been invisible by this ongoing blizzard, so they can only start to move out the food they have accumulated before, so they have not encountered several monster siege experiences along the way.
It also allowed the monsters to escape.
And at the beginning of the second day, after Antinoya pulled the curtain and cast a spell to block the cold wind blowing in his face, he began to look at Zhao Xu's back and re-popularize the "follow-up spell course" to him.
The process is mostly a question and answer between the two.
And after Zhao Xu achieved 28 intelligence, Antinoya also began to be able to open his mind and ask Zhao Xulai.
The two also changed from the initial one-way inquiry to discussing each other.
Zhao Xu also began to realize that most of the topics discussed by Antinoya and him were not very profound, but they required him to have his own deep understanding of the model of the entire spell system.
It's more like testing whether he is qualified as a "question maker".
When Zhao Xu himself was the 'president' of the small town branch of the Mage Association, he had to be under the control of the Winter City Mage Association and even the Northern Alliance Mage Branch.
Next, he had to do the basic 'apprenticeship' work.
At the same time, it is also necessary to organize the few mages in the town, and answer some of their magical academic questions by the way.
From this moment on, Zhao Xu, just like a sheriff in his previous life, felt that there were some problems that he needed to carry and solve in person.
And in this process, through this leisure time for the New Year, according to the news on the forum, the number of new players ushered in a wave of explosive growth.
However, by the time the fifth month arrives, most players have completed their professional training and are able to start their game journey, unless they really don't have talent.
This also ushered in the first wave of "total death" in the game.
Complete death, is a term coined by a player.
It signifies the tragic fate of the five resurrection stones completely used up, while there is no other means of resurrection, and it is no longer possible to land on the game character.
Those posts on the forum that protested that there were only five resurrection stones that led to the official death of the account character after they were used up, and the posts that deleted the game in anger began to increase slowly.
Most of the posters also regarded it as a "pit abandonment sticker", and they counted their investment in this game, but because of this "absolute death" mechanism, all past efforts were scrapped.
It's just that the game company still hasn't responded to this positively.
And Zhao Xu had no choice but to encourage the other party when he occasionally saw the post, and slightly pointed out some mistakes encountered in the other party's post.
However, as this kind of post increased, he also ignored it later.
It's going to rain, my mother is going to get married, and everything can only go with him.
Just as the annual leave was about to end, the carriage driven by Zhao Xu was slowly approaching the vicinity of the capital city of Oulu.
In fact, when Zhao Xu left the area of action of dozens of kilometers of the "Finnbur Winter", more than a dozen forces in the Northern Alliance and even the northern land north of the entire Ice Field Mountain Range suffered the most severe and cruel snowstorm since the beginning of winter.
If it weren't for the fact that their horses were flying in the air, they were dragging carriages that could still float.
Otherwise, even if you load a "sled" for snow, you may not be able to get on the road smoothly.
It is only by flying like Zhao Xu that he can not slow down, but reach Oulu faster than the normal speed of the post road.
Among the forces in the Northland, the Northern Alliance was able to monopolize the word North, naturally because its own power boundary line was close to the Ice Fields Mountains, and it was also the force that was most impacted by the monsters on the Ice Plains Mountains.
Blessings and misfortunes depend on each other, which also makes the people of the entire Northern Autonomous Alliance brave, and the natural military strength has become the existence of the leader among the forces in the Northland.
Just when Zhao Xu and Antinoya were discussing the principle of the "Astral Projection" doppelganger spell used by the legendary mage Ying Ergou that day to visit them, he suddenly heard a strange noise.
Listen closely.
At this time, a loud and long wolf howl came from the ice and snow in front of him, venting the monster's own emotions without hesitation.
Zhao Xu was in a state of mind at the moment, and his eyes were set into the distance.
It's just that his current eyesight has been affected by countless flying snowflakes like goose feathers, and the cold wind that rolls up from time to time makes his previous life like a "white mist".
If he hadn't worn black lenses, he would have formed "snow blindness" because of the reflection of sunlight on the snow.
"Let's go check it out." Antinoya said.
"Okay." Zhao Xu replied.
It's okay, they are kind people who hear something, and when they have enough ability, they always have to go over and see what the unexpected situation is like the protagonist in a triple-A masterpiece.
And then it was smoothly caught up in it.
In fact, when ordinary people hear the howl of wolves when they are camping in the wild, most of them also light a fire or leave the camp as soon as possible.
Zhao Xu didn't know if Antinoya wanted to change the snow-white wolfskin carpet on the ice field, and he was so interested in exploring.
However, he didn't make a move, and directly drove the war horse in the direction pointed by Antinoya's green fingers.
With Zhao Xu's three-legged cat listening skill, unless he strengthens it with a spell, it will only be a shame to take it out in this icy and snowy place.
No matter how hard he listened, the result was the sound of "hula" and "hula", without even changing the tone.
However, for an existence like Antinoya, who used incredible means to stack her "listening" skills to the level of hundreds of levels, even if she was talking in a low voice from a hundred meters away, as long as she listened carefully, even if the sky was full of snow, it would still be as clear as if she was talking in her ear.
"Eagle Eye."
With the blessing of Antinoya's more than 70 level casting level, the effect range of the long-range spell of Eagle Eye is directly up to thousands of meters.
And she had already used her listening skills to directly and clearly obtain the source and distance of the sound, and without the slightest obstacle, she could perceive and transmit "everything" that happened a hundred meters away to Zhao Xu through the magic power of the Eagle Eye Technique.
After seeing the specific situation clearly, Zhao Xu also raised his eyebrows.
There's really a monster fight.
In an instant, under the high-speed rush of the Phantom Horse, Zhao Xu directly broke into the central area where the sound came from just now.
At this time, a merchant group of only twenty people remained, struggling to resist the attack of no less than thirty winter wolves on the other side.
There were no less than ten men lying on the ground, most of them with blood-stained armor, or their faces were stiff and blue, as if they had been hurt by a violent cold wave.
These two-meter-long winter wolves breed in large numbers in the ice fields, and hunt in packs, relying on their cunning intelligence and terrifying spitting weapons, they can easily drag down their opponents by attacking in turns.
At this time, the leader of the man wearing a griffin tail feather helmet on his head, who looked like a man from a noble background, saw someone coming in the wind and snow, and thought that reinforcements had arrived.
It's just that the smile he originally showed directly stiffened when he saw that an ordinary carriage appeared in the wind and snow.
It's like knowing that the number has won, but being immediately told that the lottery ticket is actually not bought by the unlucky bastard, and the mood is mixed.
What about the reinforcements he just sent for help?
How could this be the case?
At this time, the other guards who were originally happy and pleasant, because of the wind and snow, could not see the details of Zhao Xu's carriage here, and they didn't know that the body was vacated by magic.
But their eyesight could clearly judge that in front of them was a carriage that risked death to send off passengers in this cold winter blizzard, and there was no combat power at all.
To survive is to add three rations to these winter wolves, so that they can have a few more wolf cubs this winter.
"Damn, how can this be, am I really going to die here?" A young guard who gritted his teeth and persevered until now, the strings in his heart couldn't help but break, and he howled and cried on the spot.
"Don't cry, come over and form a formation." Another warrior in full-body armor shouted loudly, as if he was dissatisfied with his companion's discouragement.
"If you players can be resurrected, you can naturally fight to the death. I was just a personal bodyguard, so I thought this would happen, because I haven't started a family yet. The man, who was talking about his emotions and breakdown, cried louder and louder.
Zhao Xu gently pulled the reins of the horse at this time and controlled the carriage to stop, but the other party's words clearly came into his ears, making him feel a little confused.
During the Chinese New Year, players have time to play games, but it is not easy to guarantee this continuous online time.
So it's strange that he still has a mission to find a player at this time.
And looking at their dusty dress, it is obvious that they are not psychologically prepared for this big blizzard at all, which means that they set off before the New Year.
"Kill those winter wolves, my bedroom carpet is just in time for a new batch." Antinoya commanded directly.
When Zhao Xu heard this, he couldn't help grinning stiffly, and he really made him a prophecy.
In an instant, he looked at the winter wolves in front of him and showed an amiable smile.
"However, you have to pay attention to it later, there is a young white dragon hiding there." Antinoa reminded softly, as if she didn't realize she was referring to a powerful creature called a dragon.
"Forget it, the winter wolf skin is nothing good, and I don't want the wolf skin to be too sassy. Just knock that white dragon down for me. ”
